Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
A recently renovated historical home in the heart of Portsmouth, the Sailmaker's House was a great place to spend a few nights. Checking in with keypads was easy and the amenities were surprisingly superior (real wine glasses, corkscrew, high-end soaps, plush towels, snacks, and Keurig Coffee machine in foyer). Our first-floor room was small but very clean and the bed was comfortable. We requested a late checkout and the manager was very understanding and responsive. I would definitely stay here again.
United States of AmericaLocation, super comfy bed, free parking, amazing fuzzy towels.
United States of AmericaBreakfast not served, but the location is close to many excellent choices. And the location is a huge plus. Quiet, but very close to the much noisier downtown.
United States of AmericaReally nicely furnished room that was comfortable and clean. Amazing location in central Portsmouth, right by all the shops and restaurants, and all of Portsmouth’s historical buildings. Couldn’t ask for much more!
United KingdomNo breakfast but snacks, coffee and pieces of fruit... acceptable
United States of AmericaLocation is perfect: right in the middle of town. The building feels historical but the rooms are all updated and clean. The innkeepers are super nice and make you feel special during your stay. I also loved how quiet it felt, my boyfriend and I felt like we were alone there.
United States of AmericaThe location is fantastic with Market Square two blocks away. Very clean and careful. Very quiet and private.
United States of AmericaAesthetically pleasing, beautifully maintained, perfect location, nice folks.
United States of AmericaThis inn is in the center of downtown Portsmouth, within two blocks of everything. The rooms are sizable and comfortable with unique touches. My shower has smooth rocks built into the floor. There’s a gigantic interesting patterned bronze tile over my bed. The common areas are colorful and a blend of old and new styles. Coffee and tea service 24 hours with snacks and bottled water also available.
United States of AmericaThe location of this place for the price CANNOT be beat. It was too bad their common areas were closed (COVID) because our room was on the smaller side. That said, free coffee (Keurig; multiple flavors) and snacks in the main room were great and welcomed.
